The Epidemiology Monitor - January 2026

Editor's Note:

This month you'll also find a broad range of articles.  The first talks about the result of the failure of chemical regulation and it's followed by an article that touts what public health won in 2025.  Our profile of the month is a veterinary epidemiologist with a broad and varied career.  You'll also see a series of epidemiology thrillers that she's published in recent years.  Looking at the job hunt, we've got a piece about the new book by the legendary Dr. Tom Frieden on enhancing success in the early phase of your career.  We've also published a grant opportunity that might interest to some of you.

After we published the calendar issue last month we were approached about several events that we did not make the list because they hadn't been announced yet.  As a result we've updated the calendar - you'll find a fresh copy in this issue. We may update the calendar again later in the year so if you are planning an event please reach out so we can make sure you are included.

We are starting to hear from many of you with articles that you'd like us to consider publishing.  We are always interested in your offerings.  Please also consider nominating people for our profile series, writing a review of a book, or letting us know about individuals whose accomplishment should be added to our monthly Notes on People feature.

LAST CALL - Summer Programs
If you are in a position where you run a summer program we need to talk to you to get information about your program for our summer program issue next month. Someone in your office should be receiving an email from us shortly.  You are also welcome to email us directly at info@epimonitor.net and we will send you a form to fill out so we have all the pertinent information about your program before we compile this issue. If you are interested in advertising your program in other issues we'll also be happy to talk to you about that.

As always, we continue to provide you with our popular monthly word game feature, Notes on People, an overview of what we are reading from the public media, and a listing of near term upcoming events. Ask us about the sponsorship opportunities for these standard monthly features - it offers you great exposure for your event, institution, book or other item of interest to our readers!

Until next month - stay safe and busy!
